LekkeSlaap, an online accommodation platform, is sold to a South African investor consortium. Multiple outlets report that the consortium is co-led by Bellair Road Investment Partners and Janic Capital, and includes several family offices and financial institutions, including Investec.
The transaction also involves internal continuity for the business. LekkeSlaap’s executive team is reported to remain in place and retain control of day-to-day operations, aiming to avoid disruption for hosts and guests. One outlet notes that the co-founders are exiting, while the broader ownership structure remains locally based.
Across coverage, outlets say the deal supports future growth, including further expansion and technology investment. While the specifics of the investment plan are not detailed in all reports, the consistent theme is that the platform stays under South African ownership and continues evolving under the guidance of both the incoming consortium and the existing executive leadership.
